What keyboards do you want to see next in my store!
So, purely out of my own needs, and since the Sweep doesn't quite cover that, I'd love a 3W6 or a Roost. Or even a Rae-dux.

New keyboard day! Chocofi with nice!nano’s
I believe this build requires diodes as the last pin from the n!n that would allow for diodeless seems to be taken up by the trrs connector. You would be looking for wireless-only PCBs like the rae-dux (though the design hasn't been tested yet; PCBs are still on their way to the creator) or the Roost

Hi, first time rabbit holer here. Would someone be willing to save me from myself and review what I have so far for obvious errors? Both in terms of the ergogen config/keyboard layout as well as kicad PCB stuff
The layout in the thumbnail is very close to one I just built (not my design), Rae-dux, if you want to save yourself a bunch of time.
